I would rather have that, but that was a miata that was for sale on Corner Carvers a while back. I'm sure it could be done but they make direct bolt in kits for the miata

S'okay, as long as everyone keeps thinking it's a gay car I can have all the cheap parts to myself.

Also ironic that I posted in this thread a couple days before my rear diff grenaded on me going up Fullerton road. Time to swap in an LSD

My wife's MX-5 is the best handling car I've driven by a mile. Even at 170HP, considering it weighs 2,400 lbs, it's still a hoot in canyons and what not. I don't know at what point you'd just be radically overpowering the chassis, but I figure something in the 300 range to the wheels would be about it and stil have anything like a controllable car. FDs are a different story, probably into the 500s and it'd still be very controllable. These are my impressions anyway.

I'm a believer in balance between power and chassis. When somehting is overpowered, the driver starts to (justifiably) stay away from the throttle because of going sideways, crazy power-on oversteer, etc.. that makes one slower, not faster. Of course straight line is a somewhat (not completely) different story, but I'm talking about power in regards to chassis/handling.

Welcome. If you travel to northern california, you should take CA58 from I5 to Pacific Coast Highway north.
